Had a squirrel drop a whole walnut into a 6.7 Powerstroke's intake boot

This was at a farm shop in rural Ohio, we were doing a routine service. The truck had a weird whistle we couldn't pin down. Pulled the intake tube and this perfect, whole walnut just rolled out onto the shop floor, lmao. The owner said he parks under a tree and the little guy must've been stocking up. Now I always give the air box a quick visual before I even hook up the scanner. Anyone else find weird stuff in engine bays?

That's a new one. I've pulled out nests and fast food wrappers, but never a whole nut. Makes you wonder what else is hiding in there.

Yeah, makes you check for a whole hidden pantry in there, lol.

Ever think those weird noises were just, you know, a snack stash?
